In 2019, The Walter Rodney Foundation agreed to establish a Walter Rodney Programme under the auspices of the Pluto Educational Trust (PET), London. That's us.
Walter Rodney. How Europe Underdeveloped Africa is a solid opener to his work. His research on Guyana is truly enjoyable to read as his passion for his birthplace is visible.

Thank you all for tuning into our conference, it was so heartwarming to have people from all over the world come together to celebrate Rodney's legacy. His life can set an example to us all. In Sudan they have a slogan, our martrys do not die, they live with the revolutionaries.
Such a powerful conversation. Rodney's work is essential to understanding political economy, history, decolonisation. Brilliant commentary from Ama Biney, Natasha Shivji, Richard Drayton. I didn't realise Bogle-L'Ouverture doesnt pay royalties to the Rodney family @RodneyProject
